1. Today's poem:
"Rondeau" by Leigh Hunt
2. Lesson and Activity
Characterization #2 Exercise
Invent a fictional character and then answer the interview questions that I ask as if you were the fictional character.
3. Assignment:
"Characterization"
Using the character you invented for the interview activity, follow the directions on the "Characterization #1" handout and write the beginning of a novel using some of those characterization techniques. Write at least 150 words, but please feel free to write far more.
You will have some class time today and tomorrow to work on your story and it will be due at the end of the period tomorrow (Friday). It can be typed, but it doesn't have to be as long as it is neat and readable.
4. Reminder:
Next Monday and Tuesday we will be in the computer lab taking the second part of the SAGE assessment of the English common core.
